inGenious brings teachers and industry together to ensure STEM education is both up-to-date and relevant to the job skills young people need and to increase young pupils interest in science education and career options by exposing them to real-life applications of science in class. inGenious focuses on the contribution that the private sector can offer to science education at primary and secondary school level. Schools contacts with business are key to addressing STEM challenges in Europe (decreasing numbers of STEM graduates, skills shortage in the labour market) and ensuring young people have the skills they need for employment. inGenious responds to the need for coordination of, and support to, efforts in place, providing a European-wide framework for collaboration between schools and companies.
